4.2 Address Guidelines
– An AutoDome with an address set to 0 responds to commands set to any address.
– Pelco-P protocol must use addresses 1 to 32.
– Pelco-D protocol must use addresses 1 to 254.
4.3 Pelco Keyboard Commands
Pelco control commands are composed of a sequence of two (2) keyboard inputs with the fol-
lowing convention: 1) a Command Number and 2) a Function key input.
The AutoDome uses the PRESET command key to save and recall presets (pre-positions) 1
through 99.
4.3.1 Special Preset Commands
Some Pelco mode preset commands have a special meaning and override the normal Pelco
preset function as follows:
i
NOTICE! A previously configured AutoDome with an address above 32 (Pelco-P upper limit) or
254 (Pelco-D upper limit) can be used without readdressing the unit. However, no two (2)
addresses can be the same. For example:
Pelco-P addresses above 32 are repeated in multiples of 32 (1, 33, 65, 97 are the same).
Pelco-D addresses above 254 are repeated in multiples of 254 (1, 255, 509, 763 are the same).
i
NOTICE! To save a preset, enter the desired number and hold the PRESET key for
approximately two (2) seconds. To recall a preset, enter the desired preset number (or
command) and momentarily press and release the PRESET key.
